 Thanks for letting us know about that bug report in the News:
we've fixed the problem in this new release, suntar 1.2.2.

 Really, we've done again the thing that caused that problem:
when releasing a bug fix, we haven't undone a few little-tested
improvements done between the previous release and the bug
report: they are pretty and useful... probably this release
should be considered a beta, and it would be better not to
delete the previous one, which had problems only running under
the Finder of System 6 in machines with WaitNextEvent in ROM.
